Just as I finally escaped the idiots at Fuitadnet, they stabbed me right in the back.
I had been with Fuitadnet since sometime in 2004. I registered my domain name with them. After their service plummeted, I switched to Hostgator in 2006, and I *thought* I had even transferred the domain to them entirely, and I'm fairly sure even paid the fee!
I suddenly found out that it expired on Jan. 29th and I had no notification. When I went to check the whois to find out who had taken it, I discovered that:
1. Fuitadnet still had it!
2. I'm still listed as the owner, but the e-mail and phone number are completely wrong.
I don't know how to go about getting it back. I talked to Hostgator. They told me that Fuitadnet definitely had the domain, but Hostgator still has my files at an IP address. They told me to contact Fuitadnet. I did, with the following e-mail:
"In 2004, I registered the domain name f-d-r.com with Fuitadnet. Late in 2006, I cancelled my account with Fuitadnet and had the domain itself transferred to Hostgator. I paid the transfer fees, and Fuitadnet changed the nameservers for me to the nameservers at Hostgator.
Since then, I have discovered that the domain expired on Jan. 29th, and whois search revealed that Fuitadnet is still claiming it. I am *still* listed as the owner of the domain, but with seriously out of date contact information. While my name and address are correct, the telephone number and e-mail address are not. I would like to resolve the situation to regain ownership of my domain and have it transferred back to my current webhost."
Is there anything else I can do? I'm kicking myself for not being more attentive, because the last time I renewed this thing, I got a letter in the mail and everything. I just want the domain back.
